As far as I can tell this is because the /etc/X11/dm/Sessions/45TDE.desktop file isn't being reliably generated/installed. Do the files in /etc/X11/dm/Sessions/ get generated after installation nothing in this folder appears to exist in any of the RPM packages?

Hello, about the session stuff, it is handled by a specific script in
Mageia/Mandriva.
See:
https://wiki.mageia.org/en/How_to_add_a_new_Window_Manager_or_Display_Manager
It seems to work on my test virtual machines.
About the menu entries, I think this is due to having an existing
.trinity directory.
Maybe a clean new user would have less problem. At least, on my quick
testing, I did not notice menu problem on a new user.
